Default Commersial SSL on Zimbra on subdomain on different machine

Hello forum,

I am in a state of total confusion now, and really need some help.

My scenario is the following:
  • Our webserver, which hosts our main domain (domain.no) is on one server.
  • Zimbra is installed on another server, and responds to mail.domain.no.
  • Both machines run Ubuntu. Our webserver is Apache2.

We have bought a certificate which allows for up to five subdomains in addition to our main domain.

The process of bying the certificate went like this:
  • On our Apache webserver I had to generate a CSR (Certificate Server Request.) When generated, this was then sent to the Company that issues the certificate.
  • They then sent us our certificate in plain-text.

My question is this:
What file do I have to copy from the Apache webserver to the Zimbra-server in order to place the private key (generated on the Apache-server) on the Zimbra-server? (And in what format?)

Because my assumption is this:
The private key-file is generated at the same time the CSR is generated. Is this correct? If not, please forgive my ignorance and guide me in the right direction...

I have searched the forum and wiki, I have googled and yahooed(!), but the more I read, the more confused I get. Sorry...

I appreciate any response!

Oh man, I suddenly found this in the Wiki:
Preexisting Certifcate Installation for Zimbra 6.0 - Zimbra :: Wiki

I will mark thread as solved if it works!
